I'm developing a Lottery system. Here are some background information:
- Total 48 numbers
- Draw 6 numbers + 1 extra number
- each Bet select 6 numbers
And the Prize:
Prize
Selected Matched
Extra number Matched
1st
6
No
2nd
5
Yes
[Code] ...
Below is my proposed table design (simplified):
Draw table
Column
Datatype
DrawDate
date
Primary Key
ResultNumber1
tinyint
[Code] ....
There will be millions of Bet for a Draw. I need to write a stored procedure to check which bets won the 1st ~ 7th prizes. How to write a query to match the bets with the draw result? The query should be run within 1 minute. And should I change my table design?
Say you have a table that has records with numbers sort of like lottery winning numbers, say:
TableWinners num1, num2, num3, num4, num5, num6 33 52 47 23 17 28 ... more records with similar structure.
Then you have another table with chosen numbers, same structure as above, TableGuesses.
How could you do the following comparisons between TableGuesses and TableWinners:
1. Compare a single record in TableGuesses to a single record in TableWinners to get a count of the number of numbers that match (kind of a typical lottery type of thing).
2. Compare a single record in TableGuessess to ALL records in TableWinners to see which record in TableWinners is the closest match to the selected record in TableGuesses.
We were asked to fix a query to get rows from a prior year history table that did not match to rows in the current year to show a variance from one year to the next. Rows must match on [corpnbr],[plincd],[pgrpcd] and [pitmcd]. If the combination has rows in the current and prior year ([hstyr]) then everything is fine. However, if they have rows in the prior year (e.g. [hstyr]='2014') but not in the current year (e.g. [hstyr]='2015') then they do not show in the result. Below is how they designed the table and below that is the stored procedure to pull the records.Â
I've two audit tables, AUDIT_ORDERS and AUDIT_ORDER_LINES.
The AUDIT_ORDERS has these columns: AUDIT_ID, ORDER_ID, AUDIT_DATE and other ones.
The AUDIT_ORDER_LINES has these columns: AUDIT_ID, ORDER_ID, ORDER_LINE_ID, AUDIT_DATE and other ones.
I need to join these two tables in order to select for each order line row the first order having the related audit date lower than or equal to the audit date of the related order line.
I don't want to use the TOP 1 clause or a subquery. I think to complete a such statement:
SELECT OL.Order_Line_ID, O.Order_ID, OL.Audit_Date, O.Audit_Date FROM AUDIT_ORDER_LINES as OL INNER JOIN AUDIT_ORDERS as O on OL.Order_ID = O.Order_ID and O.Audit_Date <= OL.Audit_Date ...
I'd like to get the first row of the Audit_Orders with audit_date <= of the audit_date of the Audit_Order_Lines table by using the join clause.
We have an application where we want to check to see if the vehicle part on a job matches to our internal parts inventory (PartsInventory table) before we order it. The problem is that sometimes the part number matches exactly and sometimes the part number has '-' or space but if those are removed, will match to our internal part number. Below is what I have so far but it only matches exact part numbers. One example would be if our part number was 1013738-00-C but the job (in RepairOrderLines) had a part number of 101373800C we should consider it a match. Both PartNumbers are varchar(30).Â
SELECT dbo.PartsInventory.PartNumber, dbo.PartsInventory.PartDescription, dbo.PartsInventory.VehicleMake FROM dbo.PartsInventory INNER JOIN dbo.RepairOrderLines ON dbo.PartsInventory.PartNumber = dbo.RepairOrderLines.PartNumber INNER JOIN dbo.RepairOrder ON dbo.RepairOrderLines.RecordID = dbo.RepairOrder.RecordID INNER JOIN dbo.Vehicles ON dbo.RepairOrder.VehicleID = dbo.Vehicles.VehicleID AND dbo.PartsInventory.VehicleMake = dbo.Vehicles.VehicleMake WHERE (dbo.RepairOrderLines.RecordID = 46001)
Consider the following: I have a table, say ORDERS, with these entries -
CustID ProductID 1Â Â Â Â Â Â CAN 2Â Â Â Â Â Â 2 3Â Â Â Â Â Â 1,2 4Â Â Â Â Â Â 4 5Â Â Â Â Â Â 1,2,3,4,5,CAN 6Â Â Â Â Â Â 10 7Â Â Â Â Â Â CAN 8Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 1,CAN
I'd like to write a script to return only those rows WHERE ProductID = CAN along with other values in the same column. In this example, I'd like to return rows 5 & 8. How can I write this in T-SQL? So, say, check if ProductID has a comma ',' value plus the 'CAN' string. If yes, then return that row. If I use the LIKE operator, it'll return rows 1,5,7, and 8.
SELECT EventID, Role, EventDuty, Qty, StartTime, EndTime, Hours FROM dbo.tblEventStaffRequired;
and SELECT EventID, Role, StartTime, EndTime, Hours, COUNT(ID) AS Booked FROM tblStaffBookings GROUP BY EventID, Role, StartTime, EndTime, Hours;
How can I join the results of the two by matching the columns EventID, Role, StartTime and EndTime in the two and have the following columns in output EventID, Role, EventDuty, Qty, StartTime, EndTime, Hours and Booked?
At the moment there is no data in the Place_No field.
I want to assign a Place_No to all records based on the number of Points (Total_Points). The highest Points value should have a place Number of 1 and so on.
However, where a number of applications have the same points I want to randomly allocate a place number for them. Application_ID 49, 96 and 155 all have 75 points so each of the 3 applications should be randomly allocated one of the following place numbers, 3, 4 and 5. I can not allocate them based on their order in the table as it has to be seen as a ‘lottery’ and each time it is run they would expect to get a different result.
The same thing then has to happen with the last 3 records in this sample allocating place numbers 6, 7 and 8
I was hoping to create a stored procedure to do this, but I’ve no idea where to begin. I would appreciate any help you could give. Thank you.
I have tables and a function as representated by the code below. The names  for objects here are just for representation and not the actual names of objects. Table RDTEST may have one or multiple values for RD for each PID. So the function GIVERD will return one or multiple values of RD for each value of PID passed to it.
When I run the following query, I get the required result except the rows for CID 500 for which PID is NULL in table T1. I want the rows for CID 500 as well with PID values as NULL.
SELECT  A.CID, A.ANI, A.PID, B.RD FROM T1 AS A CROSS APPLY GIVERD(A.PID) B
Let’s say in one field there is the "year" as an integer 2010, and in another field is the "month" as an integer 11. How can you concatenate them and not add them?
Essentially the result I'm looking for based on the example would be this: 201011 but I still want this to be an integer and not a string.

I have a separate list of calendar years with radiocarbon year equivalents in SQL server but no conversion equation. Most but not all of the data I have is in radiocarbon years. I thought at first I could just link the tables but I don't want the data that is already in calendar years to be linked to this conversion table. Is there any way I can either link the two tables with criteria for which data is linked (Only ages that are in radiocarbon years). Or possibly a way to query all ages that are in radiocarbon years and do something similar to a find and replace with a large list of numbers to change?

In a t-sql 2012 sql update script listed below, it only works for a few records since the value of TST.dbo.LockCombination.seq only contains the value of 1 in most cases. Basically for every join listed below, there should be 5 records where each record has a distinct seq value of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Thus my goal is to determine how to add the missing rows to the TST.dbo.LockCombination where there are no rows for seq values of between 2 to 5. I would like to know how to insert the missing rows and then do the following update statement. Thus can you show me the sql on how to add the rows for at least one of the missing sequence numbers?
UPDATE LKC SET LKC.combo = lockCombo2 FROM [LockerPopulation] A JOIN TST.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type JOIN TST.dbo.Locker LKR ON SCH.schoolID = LKR.schoolID AND A.lockerNumber = LKR.number
Here, 1. for all ReportId, child items's ItemOrder  = 0 2. example, for ReportId = 5, both child items ("Item1-Child1" & "Item1-Child1") of parent "Item1" has ItemOrder = 0
I need to, 1. update all child items with ascending numbers starts with 1 against each parent and each report. 2. for each different parent or different report, order by should starts with 1 again.
I have a database that has entries that I want sorted by date order. Each entry has an auto ID number allocated (primary key auto sequencing), which I want to change to reflect the sorting (so the first date has the first auto ID number and so on).I've gone into the database and sorted the entries as I want them. Then I've gone into Design View to delete and restablish the primary key autosequence. However, it is not keeping the date order in the database (ie entry ID 3140 date is 12/06/2015, but 3141 is 02/02/2012). How do I get it to maintain the order?
I have a report with a column which contains either a string such as "N/A" or a number such as 12. A user exports the report to Excel. In Excel the numbers are formatted as text.
I already tried to set the value as CDbl which returns error for the cells containing a string.
The requirement is to export the column to Excel with the numbers formatted as numbers and the strings such as "N/A' in the same column as string.
I need to generate a script where it should check the tables of a database from one server to another server(If server 1 database XYZ has 10 tables then server 2 database XYZshould match 10 tables). If the tables matches then truncate tables data and insert the data from one  server 1 database XYZ to  server 2 database XYZ. If tables does not matches, then it should check and create that tables which are not matching.
I have a strange request that might not be possible based on the laws of relational databases but I thought I'd give it a try.
I have three tables which for simplicity I will call A, B and C. Table A contains my master records, Table B contains user details and the final table contains some extra data
In my initial search when joining A and B, I return 100 records. I then need to search in table C for these 100 records based on a criteria. the expected result should return all 100 rows for the ones that match and also the ones that do not match. The problem is that in Table C, not all the 100 IDs exist, so there will not be a corresponding record. Unfortunately, our users still want to see all 100 records in the output. Is this possible
As always any help or direction would be appreciated.
Why does M$ Query Analyzer display all numbers as positive, no matterwhether they are truly positive or negative ?I am having to cast each column to varchar to find out if there areany negative numbers being hidden from me :(I tried checking Tools/Options/Connections/Use Regional Settings bothon and off, stopping and restarting M$ Query Analyer in betwixt, butno improvement.Am I missing some other option somewhere ?
I have a table with a column ID of ContentID. The ID in that column is all NULLs. I need a way to change those nulls to a number. It does not matter what type of number it is as long as they are different. Can someone point me somewhere with a piece of T-SQL that I could use to do that. There are over 24000 rows so cursor change will not be very efficient.
I have an 'ID' column. I'm up to about ID number 40000, but not all are in use, so ID 4354 might not be in any row. I want a list of all numbers which aren't in use. I want to write something like this:
select [numbers from 0 to 40000] where <number> not in (select distinct id from mytable)
Okay I've posted something like this in another area but it doesn't seem to be focused towards the right people. I need ya'll SQL experts! I have a database table that has 5 columns: Time Status Message Source IP The Status column has only two choices "up" or "down" I'm looking for some kind of advanced query that will do the following: I need the query in my application to pull the table and then match up IP, Status, and Message columns. It should only find One match and then once it has found a match it needs to recognize that one is an "up" status and one is a "down" status and then remove them from the database. Does that make sense? Is it impossible?
Hi, This is a where clause I am using in a search. WHERE (ADDRESS_STREET LIKE '%' + @Search + '%' ) I am trying to do a search which returns the most matching record. For example if I have a record with Denver as text . If I search for Denvr the spell error is intended , I will not get the result. How can I create a stored procedure to counter probable spelling errors and return matching results in a ranked order. Thanks
say I have a list from an sql statement (results list) this list contains 10 items
In another table, in one particular column - there is a match for one of these items from the initial list.
SO... this may be the list _____________________ itemnumber 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ------------------------------
in the other table there is a match... but just for one item on that list. ____________________ othertablefield 11 13 14 3 <------ match 99 78 ----------------------------
Dear all, I have two table, both table have a col which stored the data in CSV format, ie "ab , bc, de", etc I would like to select the item where "any one item" in first table is same as "any one item" on second table. I have alread have the private CSV function which can convert the string and return as table. However, I find i cannot do it like this select ..... where dbo.CSVfunction(tableA.colA) Thx//CSV functiondeclare @separator char(1) set @separator = ',' declare @separator_position int declare @array_value varchar(1000) set @array = @array + ',' while patindex('%,%' , @array) <> 0 begin select @separator_position = patindex('%,%' , @array) select @array_value = left(@array, @separator_position - 1) select @array_value = RTrim(@array_value) select @array_value = LTrim(@array_value) Insert @StringTable Values (Cast(@array_value as varchar(50))) select @array = stuff(@array, 1, @separator_position, '') endre @separator char(1) set @separator = ',' declare @separator_position int declare @array_value varchar(1000) set @array = @array + ',' while patindex('%,%' , @array) <> 0 begin select @separator_position = patindex('%,%' , @array) select @array_value = left(@array, @separator_position - 1) select @array_value = RTrim(@array_value) select @array_value = LTrim(@array_value) Insert @StringTable Values (Cast(@array_value as varchar(50))) select @array = stuff(@array, 1, @separator_position, '') end
My company is going to start a Cancel web site so customers can cancel their future orders by simply filling out a form. I was wondering what would be the best way to compare the cancel db to db that is used to store customer information and order information.
The cancel website will only hold the name, address, and Credit Card Number used. There will not be a customer/order number. The simple Credit Card to Credit Card search will be easy but I was more worried about comparing the rest of the information in case the Credit Card search fail. I was told the "standard" look up was to take the first 3 letters of the first name and the last 3 letters of the last name. If that comes up with more then one record, take that set and see if the zip code matches up and/or part of the street address matches up (counting we do not have very reliable people inputting the information into the system is not going to help this search).
Anyway, any suggestions on comparing the data would be great.
Through out the table any number of the columns can be null.
I wish to remove rows from this table where the columns values are contained in another row i.e Row 2 above is contained within row 3. Similarly, row 3 is contained within row 4. So, the only rows I want from the sample data above are rows 1, 4 and 5.
I hope I have explained my query adequately, and any help would be great appreciated. (Before I go mad...!)
